Omar Sandoval d50147381a Btrfs: fix error handling in btrfs_truncate()
Jun Wu at Facebook reported that an internal service was seeing a return
value of 1 from ftruncate() on Btrfs in some cases. This is coming from
the NEED_TRUNCATE_BLOCK return value from btrfs_truncate_inode_items().

btrfs_truncate() uses two variables for error handling, ret and err.
When btrfs_truncate_inode_items() returns non-zero, we set err to the
return value. However, NEED_TRUNCATE_BLOCK is not an error. Make sure we
only set err if ret is an error (i.e., negative).

To reproduce the issue: mount a filesystem with -o compress-force=zstd
and the following program will encounter return value of 1 from
ftruncate:

int main(void) {
        char buf[256] = { 0 };
        int ret;
        int fd;

        fd = open("test", O_CREAT | O_WRONLY | O_TRUNC, 0666);
        if (fd == -1) {
                perror("open");
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
        }

        if (write(fd, buf, sizeof(buf)) != sizeof(buf)) {
                perror("write");
                close(fd);
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
        }

        if (fsync(fd) == -1) {
                perror("fsync");
                close(fd);
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
        }

        ret = ftruncate(fd, 128);
        if (ret) {
                printf("ftruncate() returned %d\n", ret);
                close(fd);
                return EXIT_FAILURE;
        }

        close(fd);
        return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
